No, but my parents are obsessed with him/limbaugh/ect, which is annoying enough as it is, but then they pass these beliefs to my nanny. Which then scares her into believing shit like the death panels. She's getting older and even my mom admits that she doesn't have the same reasoning ability that she used to. It pisses me off that instead of trying to be moderate and factual, they just want to rant and rave about what they hear on these obviously biased programs. They don't have any balancing to it at all. All they're doing is scaring people, people like my nanny who should be spending her remaining years relaxing.
For fucks sake! My nanny's best friend just died in July from breast cancer. She was too young for medicare, too rich for medicaid, and too poor for insurance, therefor she had not had a breast cancer exam ever until something major happened and she had to go to the hospital. It was too late to save her life. Despite this, the lack of health care basically killing her best friend, my nanny is scared of universal health care because she thinks it would equal death panels.
Yes the assholes matter to me.
